Privacy at RPGN
Only what the account needs.
Information we collect
An RPGN account stores an account name, an email address, a one-way password hash, a security question, and a one-way hash of its private answer. We do not ask for your legal name, home address, or other profile information during registration.
How email is used
Your email address is used only for account recovery and official RPGN messages. Recovery requests can send a time-limited reset link to your account's email address. Messages come from an unmonitored mailbox; replies are not read.
Bot protection and external sign-in
Registration uses Cloudflare Turnstile to limit automated account creation. If you choose Google sign-in, Google confirms your identity and email address; RPGN never receives your Google password.
Game connections
RPGN records sign-in and security events, including connection addresses, to protect accounts and operate the games. Character registrations link your game characters to your account. Builder and administrator changes are audited.
The legacy-compatible direct Telnet connection is unencrypted. A network observer may be able to see credentials and game traffic sent through that connection, so never reuse your RPGN password elsewhere.
